careful, please.
Eighteen Boy Scouts from
Troop No. 661 spent two days
and nights "roughing" it and
having a great time. The boys
left Saturday evening for the
Cutsforth Park area and hiked
in one and a half miles to the
Herman Winter cabin, pack
ing their own gear. All 18 boys
earned and completed merit
badges for camping and
hiking. A requirement for the
camping badge was that the
boys plan their own menus
and cook all their own meals -which
they did! To qualify for
the hiking badge they had to
hike five miles. So, just to be
certain, the boys hiked about
10 miles, to the tops of both
Little & Big Baldy. They were
all proud of that feat and
rightfully so.
The boys worked on
Forestry badges and almost
completed them except for
one minor detail. They had to
identify 15 local trees and
everyone was dismayed to
learn that after identifying
everything they saw, right
down to the "Oregon grape",
there just were not 15 different
trees !
There were council fires in
the evenings and one evening
the boys were joined by a
chorus of local coyotes - after
which many young men
thought sleeping in the cabin
was a good idea.
The boys were accompanied
by leaders Herman Winter,
Dail Turner, Del Piper, Glen
Ward and John Gochnauer.

home over the weekend. He
stopped by to visit his grand
mother, Mrs. Emma Drake
while he was in town.
The Irrigon Fire Station now
has a lawn and sprinkler
system, thanks to 12 4-H

who ; met at the station
Saturday for a work day. This
was a continuation of the
Community Pride project to
landscape the grounds around
the building.
Preliminary ground work
was done by Mayor Chester
Wilson with the city backhoe.
He installed 6 sprinklers
which will take care of the
present needs for watering the
newly planted lawn. 4-H
members came at 2 o'clock
and raked the ground to clear
it of rocks and weeds and
helped to fill in the trenches
over sprinkler pipe.
A number of evergreen
shrubs were planted last
spring. Not all of them
survived the summer heat but
most are alive and growing,
thanks to fire chief Don
Adams and Mayor Chester
